Sandhya Nair, LCSW

Sandhya Nair, LCSW

Psychotherapist
TX
Welcome. My name is Sandhya Nair, and I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed to practice in the state of Texas. I hold a Master's in Social Work from Dominican University. I believe therapy is meant to be a space of mutual collaboration, to help work towards and understand those aspects of your life that motivated you to seek guidance. I believe that each situation is unique, just like the individuals involved. I embrace multiple modalities, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Self-Compassion. I thus follow a client-centric approach of unconditional positive regard, where the goal is for you to embrace your inner strength, leading to your desired clinical outcomes. As a female South Indian-American trauma-informed and culturally sensitive therapist in Texas, my personal and professional experiences have created a unique understanding of the minority stressors, cultural trauma, and other challenges common to those who identify as this minority in America. My goal is to create a safe space that encourages expression of these experiences with respect and balance.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
